I wished.
I hoped.

Turn around and leave me alone. Invisible and silent.

Please.

One word from your lips and it’s over

A rush of pink to the cheeks

Egging you on.

Just one little peck?

But the words return to the blender

Escape as a blur

Once again made a fool

To the one who holds my heart in the palm of their hand

But will never know

I love you.

This leaves me with a vague sense of dissatisfaction, a sense of the desperation of trying to make someone accept the feelings we can't express or that aren't understood by the object of our affections.

"But the words return to the blender

Escape as a blur"

Great image. It describes perfectly the feeling of the uselessness of words. How words are wasted, torn to shreds by the reality of experience.

Well done.

I loved the title, which compelled me to read the text contained within.
I'm glad I did........lines like
"But the words return to the blender"
are the sort of lines you tend to remember for a long time.
I certainly will

Love, is the most complicated easy emotion there is. It builds as it tears, it grows as it devours and it brings peace as it wages war... A well written piece, indeed.

Be well,

Loende
